Treasurer:
Denise Stone - Denise has been involved with PVAC for four years and has been voted in as our new PVAC Treasurer. Her two children both swim, Spencer (9/10) and Morgan (11/12). Denise and her husband are part-owners of Professional Pharmacy in Pottstown and she works part-time as Manager and Gift Buyer for their gift department. Well organized and efficient, Denise is responsible for tracking the profit and loss of merchandise for the pharmacy. In addition to her involvement with PVAC, she has been a Girl scout leader as well as cookie mom for 6 six years. Denise feels that PVAC is a great swimming/diving organization that has contributed immensely to her children's personal, social and physical growth; the role of treasurer is a great way for her to contribute back to everyone who has been a part of PVAC.

SAL Girls Representative:
Kristin Marano - Kristin has been voted in as our new SAL Girls Representative. Her daughter Alyssa, age 10, is swimming in her third year with PVAC , her second year in USA Swimming and also swam two summers at Skippack. Kristin has gotten to know the sport of swimming pretty well over the past three years, including what's involved in the overall PVAC season, dual meets and invitationals. She has also enjoyed getting to know many of the parents involved with PVAC. Kristin works full-time at Unisys as a Digital Marketing Manager and has strong organizational and project management skills, both which will benefit the position of being a SAL Rep.

SAL Boys Representative: Quan Nguyen - Quan,  the father of Dax, has been involved with PVAC for two years and has been voted in as our new SAL Boys Representative. As a guppy parent, he volunteered his time in various on deck activities at meets. This year, he took the time to become a stroke and turn judge as another way to give back and help increase the number of individuals able to provide this service at meets. Quan considers being a member of the board as another way of being able to give back to PVAC and a way to support the organization and encourage young swimmers in developing a competitive spirit, healthy lifestyle, and lasting friendships.

SAL Diving Representative:
Nicole Benner - Nicole has been voted in as our new PVAC Diving Representative and is excited to take on this new role with PVAC. Her children, Josie and Nolan have been swimming for PVAC for 4 years, and Josie has also been a PVAC diver for the past 2. Nicole works part-time at Merck and is also a Girls on the Run coach, empowering pre-teen girls to develop self respect and healthy lifestyles through exercise. PVAC’s diving team has more than doubled in size during the past year and Nicole will work with the PVAC board and coaches to enhance the PVAC diving experience. In addition to attending PVAC and SAL meetings, she will also work with the coaches to ensure that the team is adhering to SAL diving regulations, and coordinate the dual diving meets.

USA Representative:
Gary Yaglenski - Gary has been voted in as our new PVAC USA team representative. As a new member to the PVAC family, Gary has been excited and impressed with the enthusiasm and energy of the coaches, families and board of directors. He and his wife have three children swimming for PVAC - TJ (10), Brien (8) and Kathryn (5). They have been avid fans of invitational meets as they give the kids the opportunity to swim in events that they choose. Gary has enjoyed his first year with the USA program and looks forward to going to Junior Olympics with the PVAC team. He regularly attends PVAC events and will enjoy the opportunity to help continue to grow the PVAC USA Program.

PVAC/PVSD Liaison: Mary Gentleman - Mary has been voted in as our new PVAC/PVSD Liaison. Her daughter, Kaylee (7) has completed 2 seasons of swimming with PVAC. Mary has served as a board member of various PVSD Home and School Organizations within the district and has also worked with various members of the PV Community. Her years of a volunteering at PV have provided her with many years experience interacting with parents, administrators and district level representatives. Her knowledge, experience and contact within the school district make Mary an excellent choice for PVAC/PVSD Liaison. Her daughter truly enjoys the time she spends with PVAC and Mary looks forward to many more swim seasons and becoming an active member of the PVAC Board.

Congratulations to all of our new board members!
